I’ve been thinking about the idea of a small, low-power media pc for the living room for quite some time now. when I saw the eee box, I knew that I would like to try to build a system based on it.
My plans are now entering the final stages after a long and diffcult journey. Both delivery problems (the eee took about 3 months to be actually delivered) and an unusual amount of linux driver problems were the main causes of this.
The components I got in the end were:
- Asus Eee Box B202
- One “Terratec Cynergy DT USB XS Diversity”, a dual DVB-T tuner USB stick
- an external DVD rewriter
